During this Year of Mercy we are invited to be ``Merciful life the Father.`` Jesus Christ is the face of the Father`s Mercy. Mercy and compassion are not just doing things and counting them. It is an attitude that needs to be developed until we have the mind of Christ.
In developmental psychology we know that ``negative commands reinforce the opposite.`` Stanley Keleman, after many years of research, has developed an approach to therapy in which doing more of what is undesired with awareness, and then doing less, could help us to come out of that state. We could apply that principle to change our mentalities. I am making the following proposals as means to bring about change and help us to grow in Mercy and Compassion.

Among other things, the message says: ``It is the love of Christ that urges us onward. Having been touched by His love, we cannot but desire to share it with others, in the hope that they too, like us, may have the joy of knowing Jesus and may experience his liberative power in their lives.``
